Recently we optimized the Auto Challenge function, which evoked wide discussion in the community.
The Auto Challenge function was introduced in the update on April 18th. And, at that time we also announced that the Auto Challenge mode, especially for solo battle, would last for 1 month. (See the fifth point from this announcement: Optimization of AR Amulet Summon and Steam Achievement Unlocked | Updates on April 18th from 2:00 - 5:00 (EST))
After observing the game data for one month, we found the Auto Challenge function influenced social activeness in the game. Players no longer teamed up for combat or had group chats as often as before, which did harm to the game’s social ecosystem.
In order to maintain our players’ game experience as well as preserve a positive environment for all, we made adjustments to Auto Challenge in the May 23rd update.
An ideal Auto Challenge is to let the player enjoy the game better with the help of the paper doll, but not to make them lose all sense of participation. We will work on how to balance the Auto Challenge function within the game.
At the same time, suggestions on how to improve the current Auto Challenge are welcomed. You can leave your constructive advice in the community or directly contact us. We sincerely appreciate all your feedback and we will do our best to improve every player’s gameplay experience.
Thanks for all your support and understanding.
